About this reel

This short reel delves into the fascinating world of shark senses, focusing on their extraordinary capability to detect electrical fields emitted by other organisms in water. The first part explains how sharks use hundreds of specialized pores called ampullae of Lorenzini scattered across their snouts to sense these faint signals. The second half discusses how this electric sense helps them navigate vast distances and locate prey hidden under sand or sea floor. The mood is curious and informative, perfect for marine biology enthusiasts or anyone intrigued by the natural world's mysteries.
